Reason: Again. I can not spell
I went back to read some posts, it looks like everyone is doing great!
Veil If you have time to chat that's fine, if you don't that's fine, too. Everyone has different schedules and the amount of time they can spend online. I have problems with retaining fluid from sodium. It will be gone in a day or two. Try drinking some extra water or cranberry juice.
Love2b150 You will get to 190 in no time!
Tara I was so glad to hit the teens yesterday, but I am back up a little today because of TTOM symptoms. You have more patience with that ticker than I do. I weigh twice in the morning to confirm that morning's weight and I run with that.
Hi Everybody!
Question- Do people get mad if I don't interact? I seem to come to 3FC in the evening... when I'm getting sleepy... and then don't take the time I should in cheering on others, sorry. I need to work on that.
Not being the most social person either, especially at night, no, we don't get mad!
Veil - no need to chat if you don't want to! Planning is most important.
Yesterday ended around 1350. Not bad, I had a craving for peanut brittle so I bought a little bit in the builk section - I only ate a little bit, but man that stuff is high in calories. Thankfully after a couple bites I was done - too sweet, and bulk peanut brittle really isn't that tastey haha.

I've gotten away from posting as I haven't been on the computer for several days. Don't have a chance to read through all the posts but wanted to at least post my Tuesday to keep in communication.
was really hungry at breakfast and then felt full so didn't have a morning snack and then let myself get too hungry for lunch which was late.
lunch: (2 pm) out to eat with some friends and went to a locally owned place that has a lot of local, organic food. Had gazpacho (cold veggie soup - yum!) and a croque monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich with bechamel sauce). It was at least a reasonable portion size but I'm sure high in fat. Also snagged a few of friends' potato chips even though I didn't get my own bag. Why do I let myself get too hungry like this?
afternoon snack: out with same friends and had an ice cream - picked out the one lowest in calories (250) but still higher in cals than a usual snack, and of course higher in fat and sugar.
dinner: quinoa and curried garden veggies (kale, cauliflower, carrots, etc). Really light dinner since I overdid it at lunch.
workout - went for a run at 8:30 at night! It was a busy day, and that was my first chance. I ran until it got too dark, about 9:15 pm.
scale today said 201 - actually not as bad as it could have been considering the sodium in my croque monsieur sandwich yesterday.
on track today! keep on keeping on! trying to just not beat myself up re yesterday's lunch and stay positive. gotta run - meeting. I'll try to catch up on past posts tomorrow.
